Good Day to Council members and residents as well,
I have lived in SB my entire adult life and I am 59 years old. I am
so disappointed in what our City has become.
There was a time when SB City was considered an All -American City (1977) I
believe. What do you want 2021 to be considered? I asked this because... I do
NOT want to be called City of Warehouse, low paying jobs, no one wants to live
here City.
As I drive down a lot of streets , Third St (Warehouses), Waterman
Ave(Warehouses) Central (Warehouses) by the CHP station and Freeway
(Warehouse) Up the freeway further (Warehouses) all I see are Warehouses. The
air quality is being affected, the roads around town and freeways have large trucks
like I have never seen(safety issues, road damage). The jobs are not even good
ones.
I miss the days of old with green trees, parks- that in days gone by I took my
children to and would like to take my Grandchildren as well(but those too over run
by the homeless population) The homeless population that have no place to live,
higher rents and no good jobs here anymore.
The quality of life here has been declining and I strongly believe that ENOUGH is
ENOUGH-NO MORE WAREHOUSES.
Please take these things into consideration prior to your vote today,
Thank you,
Melody Stevenson
